Dr. Anthony Allen
Dr. Anthony Allen is Hannibal-LaGrange’s 17th President. He was announced as the new president on May 4, 2012 at the spring commencement service. He is married to Stacy Coyle Allen, and they have five kids: Bethany, Even, Leighton, Annaliese, and Brinley. The words of Dr. Allen: “I am deeply grateful for this opportunity to serve the Lord at Hannibal-LaGrange University. Truly, HLGU is a rare institution of stellar quality sustained by a community of scholars that are deeply committed to academic excellence that is rooted in both faith and learning. It is an honor to serve by cultivating a “shared vision of excellence” educating students to be well-prepared and exceptional in their chosen professions and calling in ministry. Stacy and I have been impressed by the HLGU family. The character of the students, staff, faculty, and administration is impressive. At a time when many Christian universities have abandoned their mission, as President of HLGU it is my goal to preserve this distinctively Christian university with an unshakable determination which values both biblical truth and promotes academic excellence. As we make this transition with our family to join this vibrant institution we eagerly anticipate making the best contribution possible to help maintain a momentum of success at Hannibal-LaGrange University. It is my prayer to promote a shared vision of God-honoring priorities and principles for the HLGU family which always pleases our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. It is my strong belief that a shared vision for excellence is only attainable when God’s priorities are put first.”

“I greatly admire the strong leadership that Dr. Woodrow Burt has provided to Hannibal-LaGrange for the past 18 years. With great indebtedness, Stacy and I undertake this assignment desiring to promote a “shared vision of excellence” and sustain HLGU’s rich history rooted in Christian values. We are deeply grateful to Dr. and Mrs. Woodrow Burt for their faithful and significant investment at HLGU and eagerly anticipate both observing and preserving the fruits of their labor. We praise the Lord for their excellent leadership and love for God exemplified through a sincere ministry to the university. My family and I are truly excited about moving to Hannibal and becoming a part of the HLGU family. I believe God has called and gifted me to serve in Christian higher education building upon 22 years of experience through gifts of leadership, teaching and administration. I am committed to achieve strategic goals as president of a vibrant Christian University that is devoted to a dual mission of liberal arts and professional education on both undergraduate and graduate levels, where there is a commitment to excellence among faculty, staff and students. In addition, I am dedicated to model biblical truths through mentorship and discipleship and lead with a purpose to emulate Christ-like qualities in daily spiritual disciplines within both the private and public sector of a personal and professional ministry.”

New Student Orientation Welcome Week/New Student Orientation this year was five days straight of nothing but fun. It began on Thursday, August 23rd when the new students arrived on campus and moved into their dorms. After everyone came in and unpacked, the next few days were filled with non-stop activity. The theme for this year’s NSO was the Olympic Games. There were over 250 students in attendance. Jessa Hopke, a senior Business Administration major, fearfully led all of these students along with the 21 team leaders throughout the week. She was put in charge of Welcome Week by the student activities office because she had been a team leader the previous three years and they felt she would do an excellent job. “I feel really blessed to have had this opportunity” said Hopke, “It pushed me in so many ways and I learned so much through the experience. I thank God for putting me where He did and when He did.” One of the main activities students were able to participate was on Saturday. Everyone was loaded onto university buses and taken to Camp Jo-Ota in Clarence, Missouri. At the camp, each team participated in a wide range of team building activities including a trust fall, scaling a ten foot wall, a rope riddle, a balancing activity and several other problem solving games. Each station’s activity had a deeper meaning than just the game though; they each communicated a Biblical principle. Through these games, the teams learned how to work together though difficult tasks and treat each other with kindness and respect. Some of the other activities for the week included a Hollywood themed dinner, a concert by Christian rock band Remedy Drive, the Matriculation Banquet, a scavenger hunt in downtown Hannibal, an activity fair held in the Mabee Sports Complex and Hannibal Helping Hands service projects. After the jam-packed five days of NSO, the new students were more than ready to begin their classes on Tuesday. The week was a wonderful time to really get to know the campus, Hannibal the town and their fellow new students. The memories that were made will last a lifetime.

TWIRP Week & Love Week Each semester HLGU hosts a week-long event for the students to get out and socialize off campus for a cheap price with friends, roommates, or significant others. TWIRP, otherwise known as The Woman Is Required To Pay, was held for one week in September. TWIRP is considered HLGU’s version of Sadie Hawkins where the woman must ask the man to attend with her. The first activity on Monday night was Bowling at Tangerine Bowl. Tuesday night was Putt Putt Mini Golf at Hannibal. Wednesday was The Living Room in the Dorms. Thursday was Roller Skating and Laser tag at Scotties Fun Spot in Quincy, IL. Along with the different activities, each night had a dress code theme. For example, Bowling was tacky shirts, Mini Golf was hillbilly, and Friday was ninja’s and zombies. Love Week is the week-long event held in the spring semester specifically in February during the school week of Valentine’s Day (the 11th through the 15th). Unlike TWIRP, this promotion follows traditional dating standards where the man asks and takes the woman out. During this week of events, the activities were: Tangerine Bowl on Monday, conferences on Tuesday, Marriage Game on Wednesday, Movie Night on Thursday, and Trojan Idol on Friday. Also following suit of TWIRP, each night had a dress code theme as well. This year included Monday as Suit Up Night and Thursday as Pajama Night. Love week also had a special event called the “Date Auction” which was held on Wednesday night. This is where female students could take their pick of the eligible bachelors on campus and bid on them for a date, with all of the proceeds going to Logan Bowser for missions.

A Homecoming Hollywood Lights, Camera, Action! Homecoming this year was “Hollywood” inspired. It began on Friday, October 5, with a banquet held in the Mabee Sports Complex. At the banquet Fresh Ideas provided appetizers, a buffet dinner, and a dessert spread. After dinner, guests went to the Parker Theatre in the Roland Fine Arts Center and witnessed the Coronation of the 2012-13 Homecoming King and Queen, Andy Krutsinger and Christina Carter. They also recognized the athletes and reunion classes and announced the Alumni Award Winners. After that everyone was entertained by comic magician Tim Gabrielson. On Saturday, alumni reunion games were scheduled for men’s and women’s soccer, baseball, softball, men and women’s basketball, women’s volleyball and cheerleading. Alumni from all over the country participated with their former teammates in these fun games. Choir also had a reunion concert that was enjoyed by current students and alumni alike. Saturday night there was a free showing of Back to the Future in the RFAC Parker Theatre to end the day. On Sunday, there was a special memorial chapel held in the Parker Theatre. The speaker was ‘94 alum Dr. Jeff Brown, Director of Campus Ministries and Associate Professor of Christian Studies. The worship music was led by HLGU’s Praise Song. Alumni and students both attended. It made for a very meaningful morning. Other activities on campus leading up to this weekend included a dorm decorating contest, a night of X Games where each dorm competed against each other, a dodgeball tournament where the classes competed and a late night game of Capture the Flag. Homecoming 2012-13 was a week full of great times for students, faculty and alumni. The activities brought so many back to this campus to where they spent their college days.

Theatre Productions The Curious Savage, written by John Patrick, displays the life of Ethel P. Savage after her commitment to a sanatorium. After the death of her husband, Mrs. Savage is left with ten million dollars; ten million dollars she plans on using to establish a fund that would allow others to realize their hopes and dreams. Upon hearing this, Mrs. Savage’s greedy step-children have her committed in an effort to “bring her to her senses.” While in the sanatorium, Mrs. Savage meets a variety of different social misfits. With their help, she leads her step-children on a merry chase for the money. Though the atmosphere created is dominantly a happy and comedic one, the audience is left with the idea that kindness still exists in a world concerned primarily with monetary gains. Children’s Theatre also produced the 3 Little Pigs show and traveled to local schools to perform.

Iron Chef
This year’s winner are the Spice Girls. The annual Iron Chef Consist of three groups. Spice Girl was the only full faculty/staff team. HLGU’s 7th Annual Iron Chef competition once again featured some wonderfully creative dishes and a lot of fun. The format for this year’s event changed slightly. Rather than five teams competing for the coveted HLGU Iron Chef medals and having just one secret ingredient, the competition featured three teams, each with a Fresh Ideas chef assigned to them, and two separate cook-offs. The evening began with hosts Dr. Bob Bergen and Dr. Jeff Brown introducing the teams and giving each team a basket of secret ingredients for the first round of the competition. The 2013 Iron Chef teams were comprised of all first-timers to “kitchen stadium.” Team Sizzlin’ Sisters included Melissa Laramore, HLGU Residence Hall Director of Pullium and two freshman from Pullium Hall, Kendra Derryberry and Kendi Ott. Sizzlin’ Sister’s Fresh Ideas Chef was Jeremy Hoover. Team Spice Girls was made up of HLGU staff members: Carolyn Carpenter, Director of Public Relations, Lauren Youse, Alumni Director, and Lissie Youse, HLGU Admissions Rep. Chef Martin assisted the Spice Girls. The third team in the competition, Frying Pan in Yur Face, included HLGU Lewis Hall and Brown Hall Residence Hall Director Katie Brandenburg along with Lora Thompson and Jason Helsby. Fresh Ideas Food Service Director Rachel Klosterman assisted team Frying Pan in Yur Face. This year’s Iron Chef judges included: HLGU President, Dr. Anthony Allen, First Lady, Stacy Allen, HLGU Homecoming Queen, Christina Carter, and HLGU Homecoming King, Andy Krutsinger. Once the basket of secret ingredients was revealed, teams started brainstorming ideas for an appetizer that required the use of all the secret ingredients. After the first round of the competition, the various meats/proteins the teams had to choose from were revealed along with the secret ingredient – Starbucks coffee. Each team had to choose just one meat or protein for the second half of the cooking competition. Each team had just 60 minutes to prepare a main entrée and at least one other coffee-inspired dish. In addition to whole coffee beans, brewed coffee, and ground coffee, the teams could also use coffee concentrate and instant coffee drink mixes. In the end it was the Spice Girls’ creative use of the secret ingredient and their knowledge of Dr. and Mrs. Allen’s love of southern food that put them in the winner’s circle.

Trojans Got Talent & Troj Both semesters students get the opportunity to show off their talents to the student body through various talent competitions. In the fall semester Trojan’s Got Talent was held with Andy Krutsinger as the host. Students with all different kinds of talents performed ... from singers, to duets, poetry, bands, and even seeing how many big objects a person can cram into their belly button.

Fresh Ideas Food Service The Cafeteria at HLGU received a major face lift over the summer of 2012. The entire dining room was redone to better serve the student body. Along with the brand new look, this year we welcomed a new food provider called Fresh Ideas. They have taken the food service at HLGU to a new level. According to the Fresh Ideas web site, they are a dynamic food service management company. They say that their extensive staff of talented chefs and expert food service professionals provide the freshest, highest quality, best tasting, full service food operation. Fresh Ideas is committed to making every aspect of their food service healthy and satisfying, while meeting financial objectives and sustainability of our communities and our world. They certainly have accomplished those goals here at HLGU. Along with redesigning the cafeteria, Fresh Ideas also added a brand new study hangout called the Fireside Cafe. There they serve Starbucks coffee, drinks and baked treats. It’s located in the lobby of the new Roland Library. Ask any student where their favorite spot to get some caffeine is, and this is where they will point you. Senior Communication student Britini Bertelli when asked about the cafeteria said,

“I love the new environment they have created at the cafeteria. It’s so clean and the quality of food has vastly improved.”
The Fresh Ideas company has made many wonderful additions to this campus. Something the students really love is the new Facebook page where they can look up the current week’s menu at anytime; that way they always know what to expect. Another student favorite is the Mongolian grill. Almost everyday the staff members are available to create custom Mongolian inspired orders for students. There is always something new and exciting going on in the cafeteria. It’s a tough job to keep a campus full of hungry college students fed, but Fresh Ideas has shown commitment to meeting that objective every day.
1. The menu at the Fireside Cafe Starbucks has something to suit any taste. 2. Just a few of the fresh vegetables students can place in their made-toorder Mongolian meals. 3. Katie Paris, Cari Goken and Shelbie Hagge enjoy dinner together in the cafeteria. 4. Some of the many healthy fruit options provided for students daily. 5. Student worker Selina Yamout helps serve dinner. 6. Denys Delgado Rojas and Carly Szawiel study at the new Starbucks in the Roland Library. 7. Breakfast pizza, a student favorite, even for dinner. 8.

Missions
Students and staff at HLGU are passionate about missions, both stateside and internationally. Students have been called to go all around the United States and the World to share the Word of God with individuals. The students are taught that everywhere and anywhere they are is a mission field. Dr. Jeff Brown says “We at HLGU are not training students for comfortable lives but rather are educating them to lives of abandonment for our King.” That is what the students involved in missions are doing. They are putting others before themselves, and serving others in anyway possible. When someone returns from a mission trip, they don’t come back the same person. While they have had the opportunity to share Christ and help others, they grow themselves. Students learn things and grow in ways, on mission trips, in a way they cannot in day to day living. They also come back with a deeper understanding of the need to share Christ with others. “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”
